Special Episode: The Indigenous Voice To The Australian Parliament

Presenter: Shreyas Iyer.

Summary:

• There is a toxic amount of lies and misinformation regarding what is a very simple proposal for providing dignity to the First Nations people and helping our government make good decisions. 
• Polls show that the overwhelming majority of First Nations people are in favour of this proposal. 
• Better government policy and better use of government resources benefit all of us. 
• Listening to First Nations people and learning from their knowledge of the land also benefits all of us. 
• We shouldn’t expect this to be a panacea, but the status quo of wasting money and allowing our First Nations communities to languish is not tenable. 
• The 'No' campaign has not actually offered any alternative viable solutions.
• Our community is a melting pot of different peoples, but we all love this country and want to play our part in it. 
• We have provided our references, and also some useful resources for information regarding the Voice below.
• If you found this video helpful, please feel free to share and spread the word. If you would like to discuss this topic further or have any questions please feel free to reach out to us on social media. 
• On 14th October we have a chance to make a good decision for the future of this country, we have a chance to vote YES to the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice to Parliament.

Panel:
Pramod Chandru and Shreyas Iyer.

Case Summary:

• 61-year-old male presenting with 2 distinct episodes of shortness of breath, chest pain, and associated presyncope.  
• Asymptomatic by the time of arrival to the emergency department.  
• ECG and observations at triage were unremarkable. 
• No recent travel or recent major surgeries. 
• Initial troponin and serial troponin were 80ng/L.  
• D-dimer was ordered given static troponin and the nature of symptoms: 0.58. 
• Although this D-dimer was negative when age-adjusted, a V/Q scan was pursued as the patient was not felt to fit a ‘low risk’ pre-test probability for PE (IV contrast shortage dictated V/Q over CTPA). 
• Bilateral segmental pulmonary PE identified on V/Q scan with mild right heart strain evident on subsequent CTPA and TTE.  

Key Discussion Points:

• If a case does not follow the usual ‘pattern’ of your initial diagnosis, consider alternate aetiologies. 
• There are many tools available for risk-stratifying PE including PERC, age-adjusted D-dimer, and the YEARS diagnostic pathway. However, the way in which to appropriately utilize these tools is nuanced.  
• A paper published in JAMA in December 2021 demonstrates some ways in which these tools can be used together (see first reference below).  
• The PESI score (even prior to definitive diagnosis) can be useful to risk stratify patients with possible PE and help determine their disposition.  

Take-Home Points:

• Pre-test probability is incredibly important, particularly in entities such as PE where only highly invasive imaging modalities are diagnostic. 
• Having a structured approach to protect yourself from your own mistakes is extremely important (such as a hypothesis and hypothesis testing approach).
